Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the French word 'journal' (daily register or newspaper), stemming from the Latin 'diurnalis' (daily, from 'dies' meaning day). Entering English in the late 17th century, the suffix '-ist' was added to denote a person who practices or is professionally engaged in journalism.
